Greg Murphy: “Today I rise in opposition to the unfair and unprecedented process that is being used by my colleagues across the aisle…”

“Today I rise in opposition to the unfair and unprecedented process that is being used by my colleagues across the aisle to smear the duly elected President of the United States and make a mockery of American justice. Since the day he was sworn in, Democrats have dismissed their duty as the majority party to lead this country. Instead, their agenda has revolved around their desire to oust the duly elected President. Since hearings with Robert Mueller, Joseph Maguire, and others did not yield their desired results, Democrats have changed their tactics. Those publicity stunts backfired. So what has been their response? Hold Soviet-style, closed-door, ``guilty until proven innocent'' investigations. President Trump deserves due process, and the American people deserve transparency and fairness; but, more importantly, Congress should be tending to the business of the people by passing substantive legislation instead of continuing to waste taxpayer time and money on yet another witch hunt. ____________________”
